Donnelly Statement on House Farm Bill Vote

Statement

Today, Senator Joe Donnelly released the following statement after the U.S. House of Representatives voted on their version of a five-year farm bill and it failed to pass, 195-234.

"I am disappointed that the House did not pass a version of a five-year farm bill so we could go to a conference committee, work through our differences, and get a bill signed into law. The Senate passed a bipartisan, five-year farm bill that would reduce the deficit and give Hoosier farmers and rural communities the certainty they deserve. It is time for the House to do the same."
